Chapter Ninety-Four: Anger
There was no word all night, and everyone rested separately.
Of course, compared to Xiao Ling and his party, Liu Fengyao and the three of them didn't sleep well this night, especially Liu Fengyao, who suffered losses in front of Xiao Ling one after another, and vaguely found that Sima Nan seemed to have some unclear intentions towards Zhao Wan'er, which made her hate Zhao Wan'er even more.
The next day, everyone simply packed up and embarked on the itinerary again, but along the way, Sima Nan took the opportunity to talk to Zhao Wan'er, but Zhao Wan'er only responded politely, and the rest was basically taken over by Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling didn't know Sima Nan's intentions, and now there was a little bit of inexplicable relationship between him and Zhao Wan'er, although he didn't say it, how could Xiao Ling sit idly by.
Sima Nan hated Xiao Ling so much at the moment, obviously he was very angry with Xiao Ling's ignorance, if it wasn't for the sake of leaving a good impression on Zhao Wan'er, plus he deceived two aromatherapy vines from Xiao Ling's hands yesterday, with his temper, he might have slapped Xiao Ling to death with one palm.
Don't look at Sima Nan's previous performance is very magnanimous, but as a disciple of the Supreme Temple, even though he is only an inner disciple, Sima Nan is very arrogant in his bones, and a person with a lowly status like Xiao Ling will not even look at him at all.
It's just that his city is much higher than Liu Fengyao and the others, and it doesn't show it on the surface.
At this moment, Liu Fengyao and the three of them walked aside, not bothering Xiao Ling at all, but no one knew what the three of them were thinking.
Along the way, Xiao Ling naturally knew that the atmosphere between the people was a little mysterious, but he didn't worry at all, if he didn't need to rely on Sima Nan to lead the way, he could completely ignore these people.
However, he didn't pay any attention to these Xiaoqiu, and at this moment he broke free from Zhao Wan'er's embrace, swaying and grabbing Xiao Ling's trousers, pulling on the mission.
It's just that because of his small body, Xiao Ling accidentally kicked Xiaoqiu aside without checking, which immediately provoked Xiaoqiu to protest dissatisfiedly.
Grabbed Xiaoqiu from the ground, Xiao Ling glared, and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Xiao Qiu first patted her little belly, then pointed to the package on Xiao Ling's back, and screamed twice with a greedy face.
Xiao Ling didn't understand Xiao Qiu's actions, so she shook her head helplessly, and then took out a thousand spirit leaves from the package behind her and handed them over. Seeing this, Xiaoqiu immediately took it with a smile and immediately ate happily.
This thousand spirit leaf is also the spirit grass that Xiao Ling collected in the Netherworld Death Land, and the grade is the same as the previous incense vine, which is all six grades. In the package of Xiao Ling and his party, this thousand spirit leaf and the fragrant vine are both the lowest level spirit grass, and naturally this thousand spirit leaf is also Xiaoqiu's snack.
Since the last time Xiao Qiu drank the heaven-grade Explosive Flame Thunder Dragon in just a few words, Xiao Ling and his party all believed that Xiao Qiu's origin was extraordinary, and because of this, Xiao Ling did not hesitate to feed Xiao Qiu the six-grade spirit grass as a snack, the purpose of this is naturally to hope that Xiao Qiu can increase his strength through these spirit grasses, Xiao Ling is looking forward to Xiao Qiu's future changes.
The two of them were accustomed to Zhao Wan'er and others, and they didn't feel anything wrong.
It's just that Sima Nan on the side was completely stunned when he saw this scene.
It's just that he stopped it just now, and Xiaoqiu had already bitten most of it, and that scene looked like cutting off a piece of meat from him in Sima Nan's eyes.
At this moment, Sima Nan was shocked and suspicious in his heart, he was shocked that Xiao Ling actually took out another six-grade spirit grass and fed it to the mysterious beast, and wondered where Xiao Ling got so many precious six-grade spirit grasses.
Looking at the reactions of Zhao Wan'er and others, it seems that they are accustomed to this scene, that is to say, such a scene is not once or twice, such a thought makes Sima Nan's heart pound uncontrollably, and his eyes are also intentionally or unintentionally looking at the package behind Xiao Ling.
At this moment, the package made of animal skins was so mysterious in Sima Nan's eyes, and for a moment he actually had the urge to snatch it over, and he wanted to know how many treasures were still hidden in it.
Finally suppressing the evil thoughts in his heart, Sima Nan's mind changed, and then he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Xiao Ling, what are you giving this little guy to eat, and can you show me if there is anything left?"
When Xiao Ling heard this, he smiled undeniably, and then said lightly: "It's nothing, these are some roadside weeds, I see that Xiaoqiu likes them, so I picked some and put them on my body." ”
Hearing Xiao Ling's indifferent attitude, Sima Nan secretly cursed in his heart, but he didn't seem to dare to show it too obviously, for fear of arousing Xiao Ling's vigilance.
At this moment, he had already begun to think in his heart, how to deceive Xiao Ling and his party into getting their packages. If Ping said, he was the only one, he must have snatched it without hesitation, after a day of contact, Xiao Ling and his party gave him the same feeling as ordinary people, he was confident that with his jade Xuanwu cultivation, he didn't need to waste much effort to start at all.
It's a pity that at the moment, he is still responsible for the entry assessment of Liu Fengyao and the others, and with others on his side, he can only suppress this idea for the time being.
In fact, this is also his selfishness, at this moment, in his opinion, Xiao Ling and his party's package is already in his bag, how can the fat in his mouth be divided equally with others.
Next, Sima Nan always got close to Xiao Ling, intentionally or unintentionally, openly and secretly probing the things in Xiao Ling's package.
Xiao Ling saw Sima Nan's actions in his eyes, and soon became vigilant in his heart, but a year has allowed his cultivation to improve by leaps and bounds, just like Ling Xiao said before, these people are not in his eyes.
However, Xiao Ling naturally would not be stupid enough to tell Sima Nan about things, no matter how Sima Nan used his words, Xiao Ling would always change the topic vaguely.
However, Liu Fengyao and the three of them on the side didn't know the reason, and saw that Sima Nan and Xiao Ling were talking so well, and it seemed that Sima Nan took the initiative to contact them, which surprised Liu Fengyao and the others.
Although Huo Lei and Wei Dong were a little dissatisfied with Sima Nan, they still tried their best to please Sima Nan since then, and there was no way to let Sima Nan be the inner disciple of the Supreme Temple, even if the respective families of the three of them were not low in Muyan City, but they were nothing compared to the Supreme Temple.
As long as the Supreme Shrine said a word, the three of their families would completely disappear from this continent in less than a day.
Therefore, seeing Sima Nan's familiar attitude towards Xiao Ling, Liu Fengyao and the others were immediately jealous.
Especially Liu Fengyao, this woman has a beautiful appearance that charms all beings, and wherever she goes, she is surrounded by stars and moons, but since she met Xiao Ling and her party, she has been deflated one after another, and the resentment towards Xiao Ling in her heart is beyond measure.
At this time, Huo Lei's mind on the side turned, and then he seemed to think of some wonderful attention, and said to Xiao Ling with a sneer: "Xiao Ling, I saw that you were skillful when you barbecued meat before, and I heard you say that you are a chef, I think your cooking skills should be good, right?"
When Xiao Ling heard this, he didn't know what Huo Lei meant by these words, but he also knew that he would not say anything good, so he said lightly: "I'm just an ordinary cook, and I can only do a few superficial skills, so I can't be on the table." ”
Zhao Wan'er on the side couldn't help but glance at Xiao Ling when she heard this, obviously she disagreed with Xiao Ling's modesty, if Xiao Ling's cooking skills can't wait for the table, then the things made by most of the chefs on the mainland are hard to swallow.
Huo Lei naturally doesn't know Xiao Ling's real cooking skills, but in his eyes, no matter how good Xiao Ling's cooking skills are, it is a profession that can't be put on the table after all.
Before, he had already noticed Zhao Wan'er, and for Zhao Wan'er's unconcealable appearance, not only Sima Nan, but also Huo Lei was also thrilled, and at the same time, he also found that there seemed to be something unusual between Zhao Wan'er and Xiao Ling.
Although he knew that he might not be able to compete with Sima Nan, he was never willing to see Zhao Wan'er so stunning, but he was cheaper than a lowly cook.
Moreover, he also wanted to break up Xiao Ling and Zhao Wan'er, which could be regarded as a breath for her. At the same time, it can be regarded as creating an opponent for Sima Nan, presumably this can also be exchanged for Sima Nan's favor.
With such a good plan to kill two birds with one stone, Huo Lei couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.
Hearing Xiao Ling's humble answer, Huo Lei said with a smile on his face: "That's it, since you are in trouble here, is Brother Xiao interested in doing things in my Huo family, I, Huo Lei, am also very sympathetic to your experience, if you want, I can make the decision and arrange you to be a cook in the Huo family." ”
Although Huo Lei wanted to help Xiao Ling on the surface, the expression on his face and the tone of his voice made everyone feel as if they were giving Xiao Ling a handout.
Zhao Wan'er was naturally clear about what Huo Lei meant, and she was even more annoyed by his motives for taking the opportunity to belittle Xiao Ling.
How did Huo Lei know what kind of attitude Zhao Wan'er had towards Xiao Ling at this moment.
At this time, Xiao Ling had not yet spoken, and Zhao Wan'er had already taken the lead in speaking, and said in a cold tone: "You want to hire Xiao Ling, but I'm afraid it's not qualified enough." ”
Xiao Ling glanced at Zhao Wan'er in some surprise, in his impression, Zhao Wan'er had always been gentle and elegant, why did all of a sudden, her tone became so sharp, obviously angry.
That Huo Lei's original smile suddenly froze, obviously he didn't expect Zhao Wan'er, who looked very gentle and quiet, to say these words without giving any face.
It's just a lowly cook, as long as he, Horay, is willing, there is no problem in inviting ten or eight to raise him. Obviously, Zhao Wan'er's words were sarcastic that he was not even as good as a cook, and when he thought of this, Huo Lei couldn't help but be annoyed.
"What does Miss Wan'er mean by this, I want to help Xiao Ling with good intentions, if you are not grateful, forget it, even say this, do you know how many people can't enter my Huo family. Horay's tone sank and he said angrily.
